My parents listened to a lot of music when I was really little. They used to listen to people like Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder and I used to be really into that.

I think I kind of want to get to a point of being as successful as possible in a way that's unique to me.

I'm pretty boring with pizza toppings. I only ever eat margherita. If it's ever anything else then I'll just go 'mmm', pretend to eat it, then throw it in the bin.

I am my own audience. I always picture me and my mates and think, 'What would we enjoy listening to?'

YouTube is an amazing platform for young musicians - although it's harder to get noticed now that everyone is on it.

I've been singing ever since I was little, but I didn't start taking it seriously until I was about 15 or 16.

I met Ne-Yo in London. I sang for him and he said, 'I want to sign you.' It was amazing - it meant my name was buzzing around the industry and I got to meet lots of different labels.

When I was 17, I signed my record deal and passed my driver's test. It was a very good year!

Fittings are boring, but it's fun when you get to wear something new and go to a new event. I have a massive say in what I wear - I work really closely with my stylist.

I wouldn't mind being a bit taller.
